  • Title: Renal vein thrombosis associated with nephrotic syndrome and gold therapy in rheumatoid arthritis.
    Author: Nelson DC, Birchmore DA.
    Journal: South Med J; 1979 Dec; 72(12):1616-8. PubMed ID: 515782.
    Abstract:
    In this case of renal vein thrombosis secondary to a nephrotic syndrome, we postulate renal disease resulted from gold therapy. We know of no previous report relating gold toxicity and renal vein thrombosis. It should be emphasized that with increasing use of gold, proteinuria and nephrotic syndrome may be more common than once suspected and, when present, predispose to the development of renal vein thrombosis.
